I need recommendations for a company to move me from NJ to TN. I have been so screwed before (like the guy who refused to unload the truck unless I paid additional money--and this from one of those big-name companies!) so I'd really love to find a reliable, forthright company big or small that can help me out without leaving me broke. Am I dreaming? Help me out people! |

We were moved from SW Va to here by Matrix. I think they are based in CT. We were absolutely delighted with their service from beginning to end, and I am happy to recommend them. It was a corporate move though so I can't help with prices. |

Biquit, I know it's not very timely, but when someone tried to do that to me when I moved to Hoboken, I pulled out my phone right in front of the guy and called the police. This is a well-known scam... The guy grumbled about how *I* was cheating *him* but unleaded the truck. Then had the nerve to ask about a tip. You might want to look into Mayflower. They're not cheap, but they've been reasonably reliable. |

Thanks. I guess I should have done that. I was just so surprised... |

Good for you Woodstock. I don't mind paying for a service but I just hate it when they change the price on you in the end. |

Go to http://www.monstermoving.com. Enter info about your move and you'll get bids/info from different companies. We used them and hooked up with Hoffman Moving and Storage (Allied), and they were great. Good luck |

Grabel moved us in a relocation to this area. They were great for us. They are privately owned and move nationally and internationally. The packed/ stored and unpacked for us. No complaints about the service. |

We had no problems with Allstate Movers for two moves (NY to NJ and one move within NJ). |

If you're still looking... try United Van Lines -- the local rep is : http://www.libertytransport.com/ They moved me and my girlfriend (on separate trips) from CA to NJ. Good luck. |
